We have discovered that with low thyroid our food choices were not helping. Here is some help if you too suffer from hypothyroid condition.

 

Conditions connected to excess cold are:

  • Poor circulation (cold hands and feet, Raynaud’s disease)
  • Weak digestion (low appetite, IBS, period cramps)
  • Low thyroid function (feeling sluggish, weight gain, tiredness)
  • Poor memory and concentration
  • Exhaustion and depression

How to balance excess cold:

  • Reduce refrigerated and frozen foods including ice cream and ice lollies,iced drinks, raw and leafy foods such as chicory and kale.
  • Avoid fasting and detoxification.
  • Eat more warming foods like soups, curries and cooked vegetables. Add spicy herbs to food including ginger, garlic, black pepper and cinnamon to increase circulation and digestion.
  • Only drink warm drinks like herbal teas and water at room-temperature.
  • Vigorous exercise, saunas and oil massages can also balance excess cold.
